Located in the heart of Ragusa's historic centre, this characteristic house on the
ground floor combines traditional charm with modern comfort. The entrance opens directly onto the street and leads into a cosy open-plan living area, consisting of a fully equipped kitchenette, dining area and sofa bed. A distinctive element of the house is the splendid round stone vault, typical of ancient Ragusa houses, carefully restored to enhance the authenticity of the environment. A small hallway on the right leads to the bathroom with shower stall and the practical laundry room. Continuing on, you enter the double bedroom, intimate and quiet. Ideal for a relaxing stay, this house offers well-kept rooms, authentic atmospheres and a perfect location for exploring the historical and architectural wonders of Ragusa AND Ragusa Ibla on foot.
Ragusa, located in the south of the island, is spread over two hills, where the old and the new intertwine in a fascinating way. The oldest part, Ragusa Ibla, is a labyrinth of cobbled streets, wrought-iron balconies and Baroque churches that tell the city's history. The squares, such as the Cathedral of San Giorgio, are a concentration of art and architecture, while the numerous Baroque churches, including the Church of San Giuseppe, are treasures to be discovered. On the other hand, Upper Ragusa is a modern city, with wide boulevards and elegant shops, but still with a touch of Sicilian elegance. The contrast between the upper and lower parts of the town creates a feeling of continuity between past and present. Ragusa's cuisine is another feather in its cap: fresh fish dishes, local cheeses and the ever-present Sicilian 'scacce' are just some of the delicacies that can be enjoyed. Ragusa, in short, is a city that captivates with its discreet beauty, rich history and timeless charm. From Ragusa Ibla, you can continue your visit to the Giardino Ibleo, a public park that overlooks a valley and offers a spectacular view of the surrounding countryside. This garden is perfect for a peaceful stroll among flower beds and historical monuments, such as the Temple of San Giacomo. For lovers of history and culture, a must-see is the Museo Archeologico Ibleo, which houses a vast collection of artefacts ranging from prehistoric to Roman times, offering an interesting insight into life in this area over the centuries. Another interesting visit is the Castello di Donnafugata, located just outside the city. This imposing aristocratic residence, surrounded by a vast park, is famous for its richly furnished interiors and its history linked to Sicilian nobility. If you love nature, you cannot miss a visit to the Pino d'Aleppo Nature Reserve, an area of great interest for hiking and birdwatching enthusiasts, where the mountain landscape offers breathtaking views.
